Government website infected with bitcoin ransomware by 16-year-old teenager
A young hacker breached a Chinese government website in February 2017. Surprisingly, the hacker was detained two days later and found to be a teenager, less than 16 years old. He demanded “bitcoin” to pay for his hard work. Although the bitcoin transaction is difficult to track, local police managed to pin down the suspect in another city, Shenzhen.
